Ed Case
Ed Case, a former Hawaii congressman, is running to fill the U.S. Senate seat being vacated in 2012 by Sen. Daniel Akaka. Case, a Democrat, represented Hawaii's 2nd Congressional District between late 2002 and early 2007.
He tried to return to Congress in 2010 to represent Hawaii's 1st Congressional District, but he came in third in a special election, trailing winner Charles Djou and Democratic rival Colleen Hanabusa. After that loss, Case dropped out and left the path open for Hanabusa to unseat Djou.
